A Sacramento teen and sister of the nationally renown mixed martial artist Urijah Faber was critically injured in a car accident after finishing Black Friday shopping at the Roseville Galleria.
Michaella
Tastad, 19, was driving home Friday with a friend at 3 a.m. when she
rear ended a vehicle slowing down near the site of a single-car accident,
according to California Highway Patrol Officer David Martinez. A few
minutes later, three more cars collided. Three people were taken to the
hospital, but only Tastad suffered major injuries, Martinez said.

great news!

nice to see she is coming around. Faber is one smart fucker to remind her of her long term goals. Its the little shit sometimes that people can hear and it helps them to be strong and come thru.

Yeah it is great news.

I'm a horrible person, I can't shake the thought of "why is trollface in that heart"?

Damn I didn't know about this. Thank jebus she is alright man. I'd hate to lose one of my sisters. This is why I feel for Vitor.

She's lucky. My brother had an accident with head trauma and he was in a vegitative state for the next 4 years until he passed away.

Yeah my cousin had similar injuries in his accident. He was in a coma for a couple weeks until he passed. I'm glad she pulled through.

Thank God she made it, thats great news
